Description
本發明是有關於一種電子裝置其長按延遲時間的調整方法，且特別是有關於一種根據電子裝置所接收之鍵盤輸入速度來調整其長按延遲時間的方法、電子裝置及電腦程式產品。The present invention relates to an electronic device having a long delay time adjustment method, and more particularly to a method, an electronic device and a computer program product for adjusting a long press delay time according to a keyboard input speed received by an electronic device.
為維持行動電子裝置輕巧的體積，裝置上的按鍵數量也必須盡可能地精簡。正因如此，每個按鍵往往必須對應一個以上的輸入字元。使用者除了能透過連續按壓同一按鍵以在其所對應的各個輸入字元間進行切換之外，由於大多數的行動電子裝置會支援按鍵的長按功能，因此使用者只要持續按壓一按鍵的按壓時間超過裝置所預設的長按延遲時間，便能直接輸入長按該按鍵所對應的特定輸入字元，或是執行長按該按鍵所對應的特定功能。In order to maintain the compact size of the mobile electronic device, the number of buttons on the device must also be as compact as possible. Because of this, each button often has to correspond to more than one input character. In addition to continuously pressing the same button to switch between the corresponding input characters, the user can support the long press function of the button, so the user only needs to press the button for a continuous press. If the time exceeds the preset delay time of the device, you can directly input the specific input character corresponding to the long press, or perform a long press of the specific function corresponding to the button.
然而預設的長按延遲時間無法配合輸入速度不同的使用者。換句話說，輸入速度較快的使用者可能會覺得預設的長按延遲時間太長，而易產生輸入停頓(typing break)；輸入速度較慢的使用者可能會覺得預設的長按延遲時間太短，而易造成輸入錯誤。However, the preset long press delay time cannot match the user with different input speeds. In other words, users with faster input speeds may feel that the preset long press delay time is too long, and it is easy to generate a typing break; users with slower input speed may feel the preset long press delay. The time is too short and it is easy to cause input errors.
有鑑於此，本發明提供一種動態調整長按延遲時間的方法及應用此方法的電子裝置與電腦程式產品，可根據使用者的輸入速度動態地調整長按延遲時間。In view of the above, the present invention provides a method for dynamically adjusting a long press delay time and an electronic device and a computer program product using the same, which can dynamically adjust a long press delay time according to a user input speed.
本發明提出一種動態調整長按延遲時間的方法，用於具有至少一按鍵的電子裝置。當對應於其中之一按鍵的按壓時間大於一長按延遲時間時，電子裝置執行對應於該按鍵的長按功能。在此方法中，首先接收複數個按鍵輸入。接著，依據按鍵輸入速度設定電子裝置的長按延遲時間。The present invention provides a method of dynamically adjusting a long press delay time for an electronic device having at least one button. When the pressing time corresponding to one of the keys is greater than a long pressing delay time, the electronic device performs a long pressing function corresponding to the key. In this method, a plurality of key inputs are first received. Then, the long press delay time of the electronic device is set according to the key input speed.
從另一觀點來看，本發明提出一種電子裝置，其包括至少一按鍵與處理單元。其中，處理單元耦接上述按鍵，當對應於其中之一按鍵的按壓時間大於長按延遲時間時，處理單元便執行對應於按鍵的長按功能。而在接收複數個按鍵輸入時，處理單元則會依據按鍵輸入速度設定電子裝置的長按延遲時間。From another point of view, the present invention provides an electronic device that includes at least one button and processing unit. The processing unit is coupled to the button, and when the pressing time corresponding to one of the buttons is greater than the long pressing delay time, the processing unit performs a long pressing function corresponding to the button. When receiving a plurality of key inputs, the processing unit sets the long press delay time of the electronic device according to the key input speed.
從又一觀點來看，本發明提出一種電腦程式產品，包括用以載入電子裝置的至少一程式指令，上述程式指令在載入電子裝置後，便可執行上述動態調整長按延遲時間的方法。From another point of view, the present invention provides a computer program product, including at least one program command for loading an electronic device, wherein the program command can perform the dynamic adjustment of a long press delay time after loading the electronic device .
本發明另提出一種電子裝置，此電子裝置包括至少一按鍵，當對應於其中之一按鍵的按壓時間大於長按延遲時間時，電子裝置執行對應於該按鍵的長按功能。電子裝置包括按鍵輸入接收手段及長按延遲時間調整手段。按鍵輸入接收手段係用以接收複數個按鍵輸入。長按延遲時間調整手段則是用以依據按鍵輸入速度設定電子裝置的長按延遲時間。The present invention further provides an electronic device including at least one button, and when the pressing time corresponding to one of the buttons is greater than the long pressing delay time, the electronic device performs a long pressing function corresponding to the button. The electronic device includes a button input receiving means and a long press delay time adjusting means. The key input receiving means is for receiving a plurality of key inputs. The long-press delay time adjustment means is used to set the long-press delay time of the electronic device according to the key input speed.
圖1是依照本發明之一實施例所繪示之電子裝置的方塊圖。請參閱圖1，電子裝置100包括至少一個按鍵(如按鍵110a、110b、110c)、處理單元120，以及儲存單元130。其中，電子裝置100可以是手機、個人數位助理(Personal Digital Assistant，PDA)、個人數位助理手機、智慧型手機(smart phone)、電腦、音樂播放器、遊戲裝置、數位相機或其他任何具有至少一按鍵的電子裝置。1 is a block diagram of an electronic device in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1 , the electronic device 100 includes at least one button (such as buttons 110 a , 110 b , 110 c ), a processing unit 120 , and a storage unit 130 . The electronic device 100 may be a mobile phone, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a personal digital assistant mobile phone, a smart phone, a computer, a music player, a game device, a digital camera, or any other having at least one The electronic device of the button.
按鍵110a、110b、110c可以是電子裝置100上的實體按鍵或虛擬按鍵。所有的按鍵均耦接至處理單元120，而處理單元120例如是具備運算處理能力的硬體(例如晶片組)、軟體元件、或硬體及軟體元件的組合。儲存單元130耦接處理單元120，可以是記憶體、記憶卡，或任何儲存裝置。The buttons 110a, 110b, 110c may be physical buttons or virtual buttons on the electronic device 100. All of the keys are coupled to the processing unit 120, and the processing unit 120 is, for example, a hardware (eg, a wafer set) having operational processing capabilities, a software component, or a combination of hardware and software components. The storage unit 130 is coupled to the processing unit 120 and may be a memory, a memory card, or any storage device.
在本實施例中，每當對應於任一按鍵的一按壓時間大於長按延遲時間時，處理單元120便會執行對應於該按鍵的長按功能，其中，該按壓時間例如是使用者持續按壓實體按鍵的時間，或是持續接觸電子裝置100之觸碰螢幕上按鍵的時間，或是其他任何持續利用按鍵輸入訊號至電子裝置100之時間。除此之外，當電子裝置100已接收多個按鍵輸入，處理單元120會依據按鍵輸入速度的快慢來調整電子裝置100之長按延遲時間的長短。In this embodiment, each time the pressing time corresponding to any button is greater than the long pressing delay time, the processing unit 120 performs a long pressing function corresponding to the button, wherein the pressing time is, for example, continuous pressing by the user. The time of the physical button, or the time of continuously touching the button on the screen of the electronic device 100, or any other time for continuously inputting the signal to the electronic device 100 by using the button. In addition, when the electronic device 100 has received a plurality of key inputs, the processing unit 120 adjusts the length of the long press delay time of the electronic device 100 according to the speed of the key input speed.
為了判斷按鍵輸入速度，處理單元120首先計算對應於m個按鍵輸入的輸入時間(m為正整數)。當輸入時間小於一臨界時間(threshold time)，表示按鍵輸入速度較快，處理單元120因而將長按延遲時間設定為較小之第一預設值。倘若輸入時間大於臨界時間，則表示按鍵輸入速度較慢，因此處理單元120將長按延遲時間設定為較大之第二預設值。In order to determine the key input speed, the processing unit 120 first calculates an input time (m is a positive integer) corresponding to m key inputs. When the input time is less than a threshold time, indicating that the key input speed is faster, the processing unit 120 thus sets the long press delay time to a smaller first preset value. If the input time is greater than the critical time, it means that the key input speed is slow, so the processing unit 120 sets the long press delay time to the second second preset value.
換句話說，一旦處理單元120判斷m個按鍵輸入的輸入時間小於臨界時間，代表使用者的輸入動作已相當熟練，因此處理單元120將縮短電子裝置100的長按延遲時間，以減少輸入停頓對使用者造成的不便。反之，在處理單元120判斷m個按鍵輸入的輸入時間大於臨界時間時，表示使用者目前是以較慢的速度進行輸入，因此處理單元120會將長按延遲時間調整為較長的數值，以避免電子裝置100反應過快而增加使用者輸入錯誤的可能性。In other words, once the processing unit 120 determines that the input time of the m key inputs is less than the critical time, the input action on behalf of the user is quite skilled, so the processing unit 120 will shorten the long press delay time of the electronic device 100 to reduce the input pause pair. The inconvenience caused by the user. On the other hand, when the processing unit 120 determines that the input time of the m key inputs is greater than the critical time, it indicates that the user is currently inputting at a slow speed, so the processing unit 120 adjusts the long press delay time to a longer value to The electronic device 100 is prevented from reacting too fast and the possibility of user input errors is increased.
以下則配合圖示來說明處理單元120計算輸入時間以及調整長按延遲時間的機制。圖2是依照本發明之一實施例所繪示之動態調整長按延遲時間的方法之流程圖。請參閱圖2，在本實施例中電子裝置100已接收多個按鍵輸入，而處理單元120會將對應於各按鍵輸入之接收時間點的時間戳記記錄於儲存單元130。換言之，每當電子裝置100接收到一按鍵輸入，處理單元120便會將對應於該按鍵輸入之接收時間點的時間戳記記錄至儲存單元130。Hereinafter, the mechanism for calculating the input time and adjusting the long press delay time by the processing unit 120 will be described with reference to the drawings. 2 is a flow chart of a method for dynamically adjusting a long press delay time according to an embodiment of the invention. Referring to FIG. 2, in the embodiment, the electronic device 100 has received a plurality of key inputs, and the processing unit 120 records the time stamp corresponding to the receiving time point of each key input in the storage unit 130. In other words, each time the electronic device 100 receives a key input, the processing unit 120 records a time stamp corresponding to the reception time point of the key input to the storage unit 130.
為了計算m個按鍵輸入的輸入時間以反應按鍵輸入速度，首先如步驟210所示，處理單元120從儲存單元130所記錄的所有時間戳記中取得n個合格(qualified)時間戳記(n為大於1之整數)。並如步驟220所示，處理單元120根據這n個合格時間戳記計算對應於m個按鍵輸入的輸入時間。In order to calculate the input time of the m key inputs to reflect the key input speed, first, as shown in step 210, the processing unit 120 obtains n qualified time stamps from all time stamps recorded by the storage unit 130 (n is greater than 1) The integer). And as shown in step 220, the processing unit 120 calculates an input time corresponding to the m key inputs based on the n qualified time stamps.
在一實施例中，處理單元120所取得的合格時間戳記是指時間戳記所對應的按鍵輸入必須屬於一字元鍵輸入(例如字母鍵、數字鍵或符號鍵的輸入)。詳細地說，當按鍵輸入對應於字母鍵、數字鍵或符號鍵的輸入時，其時間戳記為合格的時間戳記；而當按鍵輸入對應於其他非字母鍵、數字鍵或符號鍵的輸入時(例如空白鍵)，其時間戳記為非合格的時間戳記。然而，此並非為本發明的限制，在本發明的其他實施例中，合格時間戳記所對應之字元鍵輸入的種類可依設計需求有所不同。舉例來說，當按鍵輸入對應於字母鍵或數字鍵的輸入時，其時間戳記為合格的時間戳記；而當按鍵輸入對應於其他非字母鍵或數字鍵的輸入時(例如符號鍵或空白鍵)，其時間戳記為非合格的時間戳記。據此，處理單元120根據n個合格時間戳記計算(m-1)個時間間隔，並計算(m-1)個時間間隔的總和以作為此m個按鍵輸入所對應的輸入時間。其中，(m-1)個時間間隔中的每個時間間隔都是由兩個相鄰的合格時間戳記所構成。In an embodiment, the qualified time stamp obtained by the processing unit 120 means that the key input corresponding to the time stamp must belong to a character key input (for example, an input of a letter key, a numeric key, or a symbol key). In detail, when the key input corresponds to the input of the letter key, the numeric key or the symbol key, the time stamp is regarded as a qualified time stamp; and when the key input corresponds to the input of other non-letter keys, numeric keys or symbol keys ( For example, a blank key) whose timestamp is a non-qualified timestamp. However, this is not a limitation of the present invention. In other embodiments of the present invention, the type of character key input corresponding to the qualified time stamp may vary according to design requirements. For example, when a key input corresponds to an input of a letter key or a numeric key, its time stamp is a qualified time stamp; and when a key input corresponds to an input of another non-alpha or numeric key (for example, a symbol key or a blank key) ), whose timestamp is a non-qualified timestamp. Accordingly, the processing unit 120 calculates (m-1) time intervals from the n qualified time stamps, and calculates the sum of (m-1) time intervals as the input time corresponding to the m key inputs. Wherein, each time interval in (m-1) time intervals is composed of two adjacent qualified time stamps.
為了方便說明，假設m為5，而圖3A所示之時間戳記T1~T5是處理單元120自儲存單元130所取得的5個時間戳記。倘若時間戳記T1~T5都屬於合格時間戳記，那麼處理單元120便會計算時間間隔I12 、I23 、I34 、I45 的總和以作為5個按鍵輸入所對應的輸入時間。For convenience of explanation, it is assumed that m is 5, and the time stamps T1 to T5 shown in FIG. 3A are the five time stamps acquired by the processing unit 120 from the storage unit 130. If the timestamp T1 ~ T5 are all qualified time stamps, the processing unit 120 will calculate the time intervals I 12, I 23, I 34 , I 45 is the sum of the five key inputs as corresponding to the input time.
然而如圖3B所示，倘若處理單元120已取得的4個時間戳記T1~T4均屬於合格時間戳記，但處理單元120第5個取得的時間戳記T5並非合格時間戳記。由於計算5個按鍵輸入所對應的輸入時間需要4個由兩兩相鄰之合格時間戳記所構成的時間間隔，因此處理單元120必須繼續從儲存單元130取得其他的時間戳記。假設處理單元120接下來取得的時間戳記T6、T7均屬於合格時間戳記，處理單元120便會計算時間間隔I12 、I23 、I34 、I67 的總和以作為5個按鍵輸入的輸入時間。However, as shown in FIG. 3B, if the four time stamps T1 to T4 that have been acquired by the processing unit 120 belong to the qualified time stamp, the fifth time stamp T5 obtained by the processing unit 120 is not a qualified time stamp. Since the input time corresponding to the calculation of the five key inputs requires four time intervals consisting of two adjacent qualified time stamps, the processing unit 120 must continue to obtain other time stamps from the storage unit 130. Assuming that the time stamps T6, T7 subsequently obtained by the processing unit 120 belong to the qualified time stamp, the processing unit 120 calculates the sum of the time intervals I 12 , I 23 , I 34 , I 67 as the input time of the five key inputs.
在上述實施例中，在計算m個按鍵輸入的輸入時間時，處理單元120必須從儲存單元130取得足夠的n個合格時間戳記，以產生(m-1)個由兩兩相鄰之合格時間戳記所構成的時間間隔。n的多寡會與m的大小以及儲存單元130中合格時間戳記的相連與否有關。另外必須特別說明的是，在圖3A、3B中T1至T7僅是為了說明而標示的符號，用以表示這些時間戳記的連續性，但並不代表這些時間戳記在儲存單元130中的新舊程度。換句話說，時間戳記T7未必是儲存單元130中的最新時間戳記。In the above embodiment, when calculating the input time of the m key inputs, the processing unit 120 must obtain enough n qualified time stamps from the storage unit 130 to generate (m-1) qualified times by two adjacent pairs. The time interval formed by the stamp. The amount of n will be related to the size of m and the connection of qualified time stamps in storage unit 130. In addition, it should be particularly noted that in FIGS. 3A and 3B, T1 to T7 are only symbols for the sake of explanation, which are used to indicate the continuity of these time stamps, but do not represent the old and new of these time stamps in the storage unit 130. degree. In other words, the timestamp T7 is not necessarily the latest timestamp in the storage unit 130.
在另一實施例中，處理單元120會自儲存單元130取得兩個合格時間戳記，並計算這兩個合格時間戳記的差值來作為m個按鍵輸入的輸入時間，而上述兩個合格時間戳記所對應的按鍵輸入分別是第i個按鍵輸入與第(i+m-1)個按鍵輸入。舉例來說，當i=1且m=5時，上述兩個合格時間戳記分別是對應於第1個按鍵輸入的時間戳記T1與對應於第5個按鍵輸入的時間戳記T5，而處理單元120便計算時間戳記T5與T1的差值以作為5個按鍵輸入的輸入時間。必須說明的是，當i=1時，儲存單元130至少必須記錄m筆時間戳記，處理單元120才能取得兩個合格時間戳記以計算m個按鍵輸入的輸入時間。In another embodiment, the processing unit 120 obtains two qualified time stamps from the storage unit 130, and calculates the difference between the two qualified time stamps as the input time of the m key inputs, and the two qualified time stamps The corresponding key inputs are the ith key input and the (i+m-1) key input. For example, when i=1 and m=5, the two qualified time stamps are the time stamp T1 corresponding to the first key input and the time stamp T5 corresponding to the fifth key input, and the processing unit 120 The difference between the time stamps T5 and T1 is calculated as the input time for the five key inputs. It should be noted that when i=1, the storage unit 130 must record at least the m time stamp, and the processing unit 120 can obtain two qualified time stamps to calculate the input time of the m key inputs.
在上述兩個實施例當中，處理單元120所取得的n個合格時間戳記包含儲存單元130所記錄的最新時間戳記。然而在本發明的其他實施例中，處理單元120所取得的n個合格時間戳記也可以不包括儲存單元130所記錄的最新時間戳記。另外，處理單元120在取得n個合格時間戳記後，亦能透過其他方式來計算對應於m個按鍵輸入的輸入時間，本發明並不對m個按鍵輸入之輸入時間的計算方式加以限制。In the above two embodiments, the n qualified time stamps obtained by the processing unit 120 include the latest time stamp recorded by the storage unit 130. However, in other embodiments of the present invention, the n qualified time stamps obtained by the processing unit 120 may not include the latest time stamp recorded by the storage unit 130. In addition, after obtaining n qualified time stamps, the processing unit 120 can also calculate the input time corresponding to the m key inputs through other methods, and the present invention does not limit the calculation method of the input time of the m key inputs.
在計算輸入時間之後，接著如步驟230所示，處理單元120判斷輸入時間是否小於臨界時間(例如2500毫秒)。若是，在步驟240中處理單元120將長按延遲時間設定為第一預設值(例如400毫秒)。若否，如步驟250所示處理單元120將長按延遲時間設定為第二預設值(例如750毫秒)。After calculating the input time, then as shown in step 230, processing unit 120 determines if the input time is less than a critical time (eg, 2500 milliseconds). If so, in step 240 the processing unit 120 sets the long press delay time to a first preset value (eg, 400 milliseconds). If not, the processing unit 120 sets the long press delay time to a second preset value (for example, 750 milliseconds) as shown in step 250.
圖4是依照本發明之另一實施例所繪示之動態調整長按延遲時間的方法之流程圖。請參閱圖4，如步驟410所示，每當電子裝置100接收到一按鍵輸入，處理單元120便會判斷此按鍵輸入是否對應於功能鍵輸入(例如倒退鍵(backspace key)、方向鍵或刪除鍵(delete key)的輸入)。詳細地說，當按鍵輸入對應於倒退鍵、方向鍵或刪除鍵的輸入時，表示使用者可能已產生輸入錯誤的情形，因此如步驟415所示，無論目前長按延遲時間的長短，處理單元120直接將長按延遲時間設定為一預設值。4 is a flow chart of a method for dynamically adjusting a long press delay time according to another embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 4, as shown in step 410, each time the electronic device 100 receives a key input, the processing unit 120 determines whether the key input corresponds to a function key input (eg, a backspace key, a direction key, or a delete). Input of the key (delete key). In detail, when the key input corresponds to the input of the reverse key, the direction key or the delete key, it indicates that the user may have generated an input error, so as shown in step 415, regardless of the length of the current long press delay, the processing unit 120 directly sets the long press delay time to a preset value.
然而若按鍵輸入並不對應於上述功能鍵輸入，處理單元120則自儲存單元130取得n個合格時間戳記，從而計算m個按鍵輸入的輸入時間以決定要將長按延遲時間設定為較小之第一預設值或較大之第二預設值。由於圖4之步驟420至步驟460與圖2之步驟210至250相同或相似，在此不再贅述。However, if the key input does not correspond to the function key input, the processing unit 120 obtains n qualified time stamps from the storage unit 130, thereby calculating the input time of the m key inputs to determine that the long press delay time is to be set to be smaller. The first preset value or the second preset value that is larger. Since steps 420 to 460 of FIG. 4 are the same as or similar to steps 210 to 250 of FIG. 2, details are not described herein again.
值得注意的是，在步驟410中，電子裝置100判斷按鍵輸入是否對應於功能鍵輸入時，該功能鍵輸入種類可依設計需求有所不同。舉例來說，在一實施例中，僅當按鍵輸入對應於倒退鍵輸入時，處理單元120才執行步驟415。然而若按鍵輸入不對應於倒退鍵輸入時(例如方向鍵或刪除鍵的輸入)，處理單元120則執行步驟420。It should be noted that, in step 410, when the electronic device 100 determines whether the key input corresponds to the function key input, the function key input type may be different according to design requirements. For example, in an embodiment, processing unit 120 performs step 415 only when the key input corresponds to the reverse key input. However, if the key input does not correspond to the reverse key input (for example, the input of the direction key or the delete key), the processing unit 120 performs step 420.
圖5是依照本發明之另一實施例所繪示之動態調整長按延遲時間的方法之流程圖。圖5與圖4的步驟類似，兩者不同之處在於圖5以步驟510取代圖4中的步驟410。在步驟510中，每當電子裝置100接收到一按鍵輸入，處理單元120便會判斷此按鍵輸入所對應的編輯欄位，與前一次接收之按鍵輸入所對應的編輯欄位是否相同。若不相同，在步驟515中處理單元120將長按延遲時間設定為一預設值。FIG. 5 is a flow chart of a method for dynamically adjusting a long press delay time according to another embodiment of the present invention. 5 is similar to the steps of FIG. 4, except that FIG. 5 replaces step 410 in FIG. 4 with step 510. In step 510, each time the electronic device 100 receives a key input, the processing unit 120 determines whether the edit field corresponding to the key input is the same as the edit field corresponding to the previously received key input. If not, the processing unit 120 sets the long press delay time to a preset value in step 515.
此外，處理單元120會將儲存單元130所記錄的所有時間戳記清空。亦即，儲存單元130只會累積對應於同一編輯欄位的時間戳記，而一旦使用者更換編輯欄位，儲存單元130中的資料就會被清除。然而若處理單元120判斷編輯欄位並未改變，接下來的處理步驟520至步驟560則與圖2之步驟210至250相同或相似，故在此不再贅述。In addition, the processing unit 120 will clear all time stamps recorded by the storage unit 130. That is, the storage unit 130 only accumulates time stamps corresponding to the same edit field, and once the user replaces the edit field, the data in the storage unit 130 is cleared. However, if the processing unit 120 determines that the edit field has not changed, the subsequent processing steps 520 to 560 are the same as or similar to the steps 210 to 250 of FIG. 2, and thus are not described herein again.
值得注意的是，在步驟415與步驟515中處理單元120直接將長按延遲時間設定為一預設值，該預設值可為儲存於電子裝置100內的任意預設值，或由使用者自行設定。在一實施例中，儲存於電子裝置100內之該預設值可相同於較大之第二預設值。It should be noted that, in step 415 and step 515, the processing unit 120 directly sets the long press delay time to a preset value, which may be any preset value stored in the electronic device 100, or by the user. Set it yourself. In an embodiment, the preset value stored in the electronic device 100 may be the same as the second second preset value.
在圖2、4、5所述之實施例中，倘若處理單元120無法從儲存單元130所記錄的時間戳記中取得n個合格時間戳記，亦即，儲存單元130所記錄所有時間戳記不足以構成n個合格時間戳記，那麼處理單元120會將電子裝置100的長按延遲時間設定為一預設值。值得注意的是，該預設值可為儲存於電子裝置100內的任意預設值，或由使用者自行設定。在一實施例中，儲存於電子裝置100內之該預設值可相同於較大之第二預設值。In the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 2, 4, and 5, if the processing unit 120 cannot obtain n qualified time stamps from the time stamp recorded by the storage unit 130, that is, all the time stamps recorded by the storage unit 130 are insufficient to constitute The n-time stamps are set, and the processing unit 120 sets the long-press delay time of the electronic device 100 to a preset value. It should be noted that the preset value may be any preset value stored in the electronic device 100 or set by the user. In an embodiment, the preset value stored in the electronic device 100 may be the same as the second second preset value.
在本發明的另一實施例中，處理單元120也可將反應按鍵輸入速度的m個按鍵輸入之輸入時間，與多個臨界時間進行比較，從而多階段式地調整電子裝置100的長按延遲時間。舉例來說，當m個按鍵輸入的輸入時間小於第一臨界時間(例如1500毫秒)時，處理單元120將長按延遲時間設定為400毫秒。倘若m個按鍵輸入的輸入時間大於第二臨界時間(例如5000毫秒)，處理單元120將長按延遲時間設定為750毫秒。而在m個按鍵輸入的輸入時間介於第一臨界時間與第二臨界時間之間時，處理單元120將長按延遲時間設定為600毫秒。In another embodiment of the present invention, the processing unit 120 may also compare the input time of the m key inputs of the reaction key input speed with a plurality of critical times, thereby adjusting the long delay of the electronic device 100 in multiple stages. time. For example, when the input time of the m key inputs is less than the first critical time (eg, 1500 milliseconds), the processing unit 120 sets the long press delay time to 400 milliseconds. If the input time of the m key inputs is greater than the second critical time (eg, 5000 milliseconds), the processing unit 120 sets the long press delay time to 750 milliseconds. When the input time of the m key inputs is between the first critical time and the second critical time, the processing unit 120 sets the long press delay time to 600 milliseconds.
在本發明的另一實施例中，處理單元120也可根據編輯欄位的種類設定不同的臨界時間。而在判斷按鍵輸入速度時，則以使用者當時進行輸入之編輯欄位所對應的臨界時間來作為判斷依據。In another embodiment of the present invention, the processing unit 120 may also set different critical times according to the type of the editing field. When judging the key input speed, the critical time corresponding to the edit field input by the user at that time is used as a judgment basis.
